Atheists Launch No Lives Matter Movement

WORLD—A group of atheists, along with some agnostics, announced on Tuesday a new sociopolitical movement consistent with their worldview called No Lives Matter.

According to sources, organizers for NLM have planned numerous rallies to protest other rallies claiming that lives matter. The organization’s mission statement defines the group as “people motivated by the belief that all human lives are equally meaningless.”

“Since we are just random accidents of evolution, and our so-called moral truths are just biochemical reactions in our brain, no human lives, or any lives at all, actually matter,” said prominent atheist Richard Dawkins, speaking for NLM. “Anyone who says Black Lives Matter, or Blue Lives, or whatever lives, has to believe in a higher moral code given by a creator. You can’t say in one breath that lives matter, and in the next breath claim that God is a human invention and all truth is relative.”

“We’re just trying to be logically consistent,” he added.

The movement quickly fell apart, though, when leaders had trouble convincing followers that the No Lives Matter movement mattered.

Nihilism is easy to start but hard to finish.

I knew it was satire, after the third paragraph, and only then after looking at the source:)

Satire hits hardest when you find yourself checking the source! Babylon Bee strikes again!

I believe this movement was originally instituted by the Bolsheviks...

Atheism is so depressing. There is simply no point to anything.

This is a huge lie. They prove that they really do not believe this, or each of them would “off” themselves immediately.

The only logical conclusion to atheism is suicide. All life includes suffering, so if life is without meaning, there is no reason to suffer.

Suicide is the only logical conclusion for a true atheist.

Proving they don’t believe what they say. Your actions betray how much you believe what you say.

I lol’ed. Oh, Babylon Bee.

They got it wrong, though. That’s a Nihilist thing, not a particularly Atheist thing. Not all Atheists are Nihilists.

>> “We’re just trying to be logically consistent,” he added.

Love, creativity, spirituality, existence are certainly not “logical” things, so I’ll grant them their arrogant sense of logical consistency.

The Bee’s satire is so good sometimes it is hard to tell from reality. What is sad is sometimes you can’t tell reality from satire nowadays.

Wanna bet this ends up at some msm site as fact?
